Academic Language Practice Paragaph 6

I think undocumented immigrants should not be given citizenship. I think that if immigrants want to come into our country they should be verified so they could pay taxes. Immigrants that come here illegally could be criminals so to simplify the crime rate they should go through the process the right way. If they have to get out of their countries because they are in danger they should still go through the paper work sequence and that way they won't have complications with getting a job or getting a drivers license. I think this is important because some immigrants do come here illegally, and have problems getting a job or buying a house because they don't have the right paperwork. They end up getting sent back and going through all that trouble for nothing.

''Marigolds'' Lizabeth's Shoes

I chose prompt B because I have had many situations where my grandma was worrying about the bills and how she was going to pay them.She was a foster mom of six children, but when my brother,sister,and my younger brother got moved into different homes all of their checks got taken away. So my grandma had to live paycheck to paycheck and we had to compromise a lot. I started to work for people at my church by cleaning their houses or washing their cars so that I could give the money to her at the end of the month so we could have a little bit extra. At first, I was always the youngest and didn't have to do anything but when people started packing their bags and leaving I had to grow up and help my family. I still help my grandma a little bit because I moved out and that's even more of a check that she doesn't have anymore. I'm glad I'm able to help because she was always there for me when I needed something.

Marigolds moving into adulthood

I think the pressures of going into adulthood are hard because you have to learn how to be independent and manage your own life. I also feel that you have to do things all by yourself and know when to wake up, when to ea,t and when to go to sleep.Being here you always have someone there for you. Say you run out of money you can usually ask for a loan from your family and just pay them back, but if your on your own and you don't have a job yet who are you going to call. These are the types of things that people have to deal with when they leave home. I think being prepared before you leave the nest is a important thing to do.

T- chart week 5


Yes, I think vaccination should be required for all children. Children are more prone to getting diseases and illnesses because of how little they are and because their immune systems aren't fully developed. Some children are allergic to the types of shots they get, so before they go to the doctor, they should <b>ILLUSTRATE</b> what they are allergic to. When the children get older they can have severe health problems if they don't get the vaccinations. The <b>POSITIVES</b> about children getting the vaccinations is that it will help keep them healthy and keep diseases from spreading.If you <b>ESTIMATED</b> the amount of illnesses children get because they didn't receive treatment, that should be enough to say that children should get their vaccinations when they are little. This is why children should receive vaccinations at a very young age.

Thank you ma'm letter

Dear Ms. Luella Bates Washington Jones,

 It's me Roger the kid that tried to steal your purse a while back. I know I'm probably the last person that you expected to here from six years later, but I just wanted to say thank you ma'm. After, my visit from your house I decided I wasn't going to steal anymore, and that I'm going to get my life together. I got my Suede shoes the next day . I was so happy that I finally got shoes that my toes didn't poke through out the front. I went to school and I washed my face everyday. I got out of the streets and tried to follow the rules as much as possible. I just wanted to thank you in a letter because you don't know how much I walked up to your house and tried to say it to your face. I'm much stronger now and I'm moving on to college.

Sincerely,
Roger
P.S Thank you ma'm
